Anyone else skeptical this fascist regime will let DHS starve over a budget tussle?

I'll believe in the DHS shutdown when I see it.
If it actually happens it would be a good first step before dismantling the entire misbegotten abuse of power it was waiting to become since its inception.

My bet is still on illegal fiscal fuckery to keep the brown shirts roaming American streets.

"Immigration enforcement" ended long ago.
It's full on state terror and murder now.
That mission continues full swing and will until they are forced to stop.

The orangutaint and his troop are going to fling shit all the way down, but they are falling from their tree this year.

American citizens, MN leading, are debunking the 'great man' theory of history.
No one of any power has stepped up to *actually* help.
No politician (click bait and begging don't count)
No cop ('crowd control' is the opposite of help)
No one.

When this regime falls all credit goes to the people.

Fucking propaganda.

130,000 jobs added, but how many are huge downgrades?
4.3% unemployment? Sure, by a grossly distorted formula.
It's over 25% - see www.lisep.org/tru

This lie has been running for a long time. Official vs. reality disconnects like this built the rage the fascists rode in on.
Jobs Report Live Updates: U.S. Hiring Starts the Year at a Strong Pace

How can blue state MAGAts not get that if they succeed, they are in the next persecution cohort?

In fascism's perpetual need for internal enemies they are natural successors to the role currently held by 'foreigners'

He's yanking the levers like a desperate chimp, hoping he can inflict enough pain to force capitulation.

No one is going to cave to an obvious lame duck whose rats are already eyeing the lifeboats.

He'll do all the damage he can on the way down, but this is the year we sink him.

Total 🐎💩.
The odds of DHS enduring a shutdown are exactly zero.
Regardless of illegality, the fascist regime will raid other budgets or invent funding sources.
They will do anything to keep the brown shirts paid and on the streets waging their war against citizens and democracy.

The NYT editorial office must be hosting hand to hand melee matches between the fascist apologists and the actual journalists.

At least half the headlines understate the regime's crimes.

But the article on the WH propaganda image fakery perpetrated on Nekima Levy Armstrong is legit journalism.

Nekima Levy Armstrong walked from the federal courthouse with strength and resolve. They put her in multiple restraints to try to intimidate her and they failed.

The WH posted an AI modified image of her disheveled and weeping.

While the Senate Democrats actually have some leverage, how about including release of the long overdue Epstein Files in the non-negotiable demands?

The Epstein Transparency Act passed both houses with only a single dissenting vote.

For fuck's sake, this is the key to breaking the regime.
